victim and he was pronounced dead at the scene. police are trying to determine whether the stabbing was gang related or not. it's the city's fifth homicide of the year. we have a crew at the scene. more coming up tonight at 6:00. the search for chris dorner is wrapping up near big bear. the excop turned killer is believed dead after a gun battle and fire. we are live with the very latest for us tonight. >> reporter: that remote cabin is about 10 miles up the road here. chp just opened up the highway, highway 38 by moving the check point further up toward the crime scene itself. but no media will be allowed near that for the foreseeable future. and meanwhile, here in southern california, it's been a somber day. today the quiet work of recovery begins as the first of the memorial services for murdered officers gets underway. michael crane was honored by

officers from all around southern california, they lined up at the grove community church today. some like a firefighter with a personal connection to the murdered officer. he answered the call after the shooting. >> reporter: when did you find when you got there? >> a bullet ridden vehicle with two officers that were shot. the driver, he was shot, but still alive at that time. crane was unconscious. >> reporter: and people from across southern california poured into the riverside service and many with connections to this shooting spree. >> my daughter knew the young woman. the first victim. and just my way of coming back just to pay my respects. >> reporter: did you make up the sign? >> yes. >> reporter: your words? >> yes. >> reporter: what moved you to do this? >> to show his family that we

still care for him, even if he's not right with us, he is still in our hearts. >> reporter: he was laid to rest in the national cemetery. and up in the mountains, others who encountered the suspect are counting their blessings today at getting away alive. >> he said i don't want to hurt you. just get out and start walking up the road and take your dog. i said, can i take her leash. and he said, no. we started walking up the road. within about 10 seconds or so, i had heard a big volley of gun fire. >> reporter: it's a week nobody will forget. be. >> be ready on the number four side. we have fire out the back. >> one shot fired from inside the residence. >> copy. confirming you still want fire rolling? >> roll in and stage. >> reporter: to the beginning of one of the biggest forensic jobs ever handled in southern

california. and it's really hard to overstate the extent of the forensic work. they'll comb through the cabin with a fine tooth comb. and that's going to begin at this hour because it's no longer smoldering or a problem. that will take weeks before they go through the cabin entirely. more later and also from some of the residents up here in and around big bear who had rather close calls over the last couple days. you will hear about it tonight on channel 5. kpix 5. back to you. >> did he take his own life? those are questions unanswered tonight, right? >> reporter: yes. still don't know. again, that forensic work will take a longtime. and it is believed, it has been reported by some of the law enforcement agencies that he was in fact shot by a sharpshooter before that fire broke out. we will find out in the coming hours and days. >> very good. thank you so much.

well, one of his victims may be in line for the million-dollar reward, but maybe not. a house cleaner who he tied up in a condo managed to escape, reported it to police and then told them that it stole a car. but it stipulates that it's for leading to his capture and conviction. since it's all but certain that he is dead whether the reward is paid may come down to a judgment call. it's kind the equipment needed yesterday. but a armored vehicle designed to withstand weapons of mass destruction is causing a stir. some are questioning whether the money spent on the vehicle is really worth it. >> reporter: that's right. it was in here, just not known for this time of thing. but times are changing. here's the story. most people picture him --

picture the community of a well oiled life style. the idea of teaming up to buy a bearcat urban assault vehicle similar to the one here for the sheriff's department newly created department of mass destruction unit has people talking. >> seems ridiculous. doesn't seem appropriate. >> i'm not sure we need an assault vehicle, but beyond. >> reporter: the county supervisor has certainly gotten an ear full over the deal. >> well, i think there's two levels of reaction. the high school kids can't get a get a ride in it. and the general public wonders if it's the best use of funds. >> reporter: money comes from a grant. and the van will be used by a four-county weapons of mass destruction unit and will be able to respond to emergencies, including chemical, bilogical, radio logical, and nuclear

explosive agents. >> possibly huge weapons of mass destruction, bilogical chemical or nuclear here? >> you know, no i think the biggest thing we have is protest over dog walkers. but as far as being prepared and part of a mutual aid response, this is what we're doing. so it gives them another tool. you know, from your perspective, perhaps another tool to become familiar with. but in times of trouble, you want these folks to know how to use what they've got. >> it did you want seem to go with the image. >> well, it doesn't. and you know, i think that we are a community, a peace loving crowd. on the other hand, we're also a crowd that's been known for our planning skills and we're planning ahead with this. >> reporter: and that's something folks are thinking about, even here. >> it sounds like a waste of money, doesn't it? and look at yesterday going on. >> it says it could happen
